Star Wars help needed...

[Blue Meanie]

Didn't know where to post this. Came across Star Wars Gum on ebay search and was wondering what the pin up/poster looks like that supposedly came with the gum:




Thanks for any help on this question.

They are wonderfully strange rewordings of the images found on their trading cards. Just plain bizarre looking, and a difficult set to put together. I have a couple packs too, but none of the wrapper cards.

Now that was quick. Thanks for the link. I never collected Star Wars when I was a kid and the movies came out at the time that you think I would have gone bat crap crazy for them. Movie came out when I was 7. Never had any of the figures. Only now I am seeing stuff I never knew existed. Found out that Topps did mini movie posters for Star Wars and Empire. 12 X 20. They look incredible and are really affordable.

Yeah, a lot of the Topps stuff is surprisingly affordable. Even the vintage card and sticker sets can be had for relatively cheap. They never took off in value like the action figures.

They also did some large 5 x7 cards for Empire that were quite nice. And some puffy stickers I believe.

yeah, I gave my son some of the 5x7 cards, they are really nice looking because of the size

More importantly, how's the gum?

that gum had so many preservatives in it I bet it still tastes the same as when it came out in 1977

Probably

I tell you the Tops mini posters look really cool. Nice sized posters at 12 X 20. Here's a blog/article on line about them:
